Russula Hat
The Russula Hat is a slouchy knit cap, with two versions offered. The first features a band of stranded knitting across the brim, and the second is worked in plain stockinette. To keep the brim stabilized, there is a whip stitched stockinette facing worked into the brim.
Finished Measurements
Circumference: 21 3⁄4” / 55.5 cm
Height (with brim folded): 8” / 20.5 cm
Note: Due to the three layers of knitting at the folded brim, the finished circumference of this hat is slightly larger than a standard adult-sized hat. This hat is unisex, and should fit adult heads of 19-21” / 48.5-53.5 cm circumference.
